Back In The High Life Again

Steve Winwood

You can noodle between the notes D, C, and E like this before the intro that starts at 35 seconds into the song:

...Or just start 35 second in with the intro below:

Intro

[D] [C] [D] [Dsus4] (4x)
[D] [Dsus4] [D] [A] (2x)

It used [D] to seem to [G] me that my [D] life ran on too [Asus4] fast,
and I [D] had to take it [G] slowly just to [D] make the good parts [Asus4] last
But [D] when you're born to [G] run it's so [D] hard to just slow [Asus4] down,
so [D] don't be surprised to [G] see me back [D] in that bright part of [Asus4] town

Chorus

We'll be [D] back in the [Em] high life [D] again [G]
all the doors I [D] closed one time, will [Asus4] open up again [D] [G]
We'll be [D] back in the [Em] high life [D] again [G]
All the eyes that [D] watched us once, will [A] smile and take us in [D] [G] [D]

And we'll [G] drink and dance with [D] one hand free;
[A] let the world go [D] easily, and [G] oh we’ll be a [D] sight to see;
back in the [Asus4] high [A] life again [D]

Instrumental

[D] [Dsus4] 3x
[D] [A]

You [D] used to be the [G] best to [D] make life be [Asus4] life to me,
and I [D] hope that you're [G] still out there and [D] you're like you used to be [Asus4]
We'll [D] have ourselves a [G] time and we'll [D] dance ‘till the morning sun [Asus4],
and we'll [D] let the good times [G] come in and we won't [D] stop ‘till we're done [Asus4]

Chorus

We'll be [D] back in the [Em] high life [D] again [G]
all the doors I [D] closed one time, will [Asus4] open up again [D] [G]
We'll be [D] back in the [Em] high life [D] again [G]
All the eyes that [D] watched us once, will [A] smile and take us in [D] [G] [D]

And we'll [G] drink and dance with [D] one hand free;
[A] let the world go [D] easily, and [G] oh we’ll be a [D] sight to see;
back in the [Asus4] high [A] life again [D]

Instrumental

[D] [Dsus4] 3x
[D] [A]
